The Kansas City Chiefs added two years to quarterback Patrick Mahomes' deal, extending him through 2033 and raising the contract's total to $504.75 million. The extension averages about $64 million per season and is the first NFL contract to exceed $500 million. The Chiefs made the commitment despite Mahomes' 2025 knee injury, keeping the franchise quarterback in place long term.

What’s the average teacher salary?

This entire country has lost its mind.

ah, meaning the QB positing will now be taking up a huge chunk of the salary cap and the team around him will be weaker. Well, it was nice while it lasted.

Pay them well, sure, but it’s disgusting that so few get so much, and the rest of the population will work hard their entire lives and never make near as much. These enormous pay gaps are what landed 🇺🇸 in so much trouble in the first place.

I mean, I get it but as a fan it would be nice to feel like I can afford to watch at least one NFL game in person in my lifetime.

500M reasons to not watch pro football. How about a base salary with performance bonuses like many workers not making $50M+ a year.

Absolutely indecent amount of money.

Over half a billion dollars.... With a B. Holy fuck.

Since stadium seat prices & tv/radio ads pay for these ludicrous salaries, it also forces our costs up for everything advertised.

There was once a time when a six million dollar man was about a cyborg.

That is stupid money. Far too many sports people getting paid way too much.

That's wonderful for him but I can only think of homeless people living on the street.

No player is worth that much.

That’s just sick. And I don’t mean in a good way

I've seen every QB since Johnny Unitas, and I've never seen anyone better than Mahomes.

The way the salary cap goes up every year, the Chiefs just got a bargain. QBs who aren't as good as Mahomes get paid nearly as much.

And they don’t even know if he can bend his knee. Lol

He’s on the back nine of his career so this is likely a large overpay but he’s labor. He is not the problem. The oligarchy that can pay this from their couch change is the problem.

He could invest 99% of that in communities and still live an amazing life.

I’m a die-hard out-of-market Packers fan, but I can’t afford to sub to all the various streaming services to watch games, let alone see a game live. All I have left is radio. Pro Sports will eventually eat themselves.
